Last night I went to a theater and saw CHEF which is hardly a great film but was certainly a pleasant enough diversion.

I agree, a pleasant diversion, and the second science-fiction movie out this year starring Sofía Vergara. (I consider any movie where the world's hottest living woman is romantically linked to John Turturro and Jon Favreau to qualify as science fiction—especially if the plot calls for her to pay Turturro to have sex with her. Ah, Hollywood!)



Not just Sofia, but Scarlett Johansen, too, from what I understand. Real plausible.

FINALLY!  :D

Should I be concerned that I just heard one electrician say to the other, "Wire?  What wire?"

I see you haven't responded to this. Power must be out.

Or she is trying to get ready to go out.

Opening night vibes for DR GEORGE.

Thanks to all for the vibes for STEEL MAGNOLIAS....we had a fine audience and the ladies did a nice job.  Of course while watching last night, I realized that the sound effects should have been for a hand gun instead of a rifle......but sometimes those things happen.  If we were still using the old system, I would just redo the disk....but since it's on the computer now and all the cues are "complicated", it will just stay as it is.....  The dogs and the music are nice, however for some reason they sound very muffled.

Thanks, Jack!  And...

~~~Continued Break Legs Vibes for Your Cast!!~~~

BK, I think you may be pleasantly surprised by ALWAYS, PATSY CLINE.  I saw it here two years ago, and although I am not a country western fan, I loved this show.  My dear Friend, Sharry O'Hare played the role of Louise, the role that Sally Struthers will be playing in the production you are seeing.  It is basically a true story.  It is warm and touching, and hysterical.

Capital Playhouse did it here in Olympia a few years ago, too.  It was quite delightful.

Yes, the power was out briefly and, as soon as Richard returned from picking up his tux, I disappeared upstairs to take a shower.  We are back on line now and I think the electricians are about to leave.

Yes, DR Jane, it was a bit of both.  I got to christen Rob and Mary Linda's somewhat refurbished bathroom and discovered a couple more things that need attention.  The shower faucets are a little stiff from disuse and the shower head seems a little clogged.

A few days ago, DR MBarnum offered a link to a site designed to assist with selecting your Netflix queue.  Here is a new start-up offering the same thing. It is also free (as was DR MBarnum's, if I recall correctly):
http://abetterqueue.com/


I guess I don't understand what that is.


DR TCB - these are just website tools that help you sort through the dreck and pick good stuff to watch on Netflix.


Hope you are feeling less pain today!

Whew!  The electricians left about 20 minutes ago and Richard and I are both ready for the evening with about 20 minutes to spare.

Off to get our marching orders from Bride Lauren - bye for now!

I saw Sally Struthers as Miss Hannigan in ANNIE and as Miss Lynch in GREASE. She was hilarious in both shows.  The audiences loved her.

She opened GREASE - which begins with a reunion which sort of explained why all the high
school students were [at least] in their thirties.

People were still coming into the theatre and she stopped the show and asked their names...."Oh yes, I remember you, you were always late to class, too"....and she took her ample frame out into the audience moving between rows and "remembering" anecdotes about people whose feet she was stepping on....she walked behind us brushing up against us and apologizing....for the narrow aisles...

Of course my favorite put-down of latecomers was done by DAME EDNA.....she also stopped what she was doing and asked the group where they were from.....they told her....and then she said:

"Well.....I came all the way from Australia, and I got here on time...."
